  • Lower Cholesterol Levels Are Critical To Good Health
    Article: Lower Cholesterol Levels Are Critical To Good Health By Phil Beckett Copyright © Physique Concepts Inc.

    Can any man really lower his cholesterol?

    Lower cholesterol levels should be a health concern of every man.

    Heart disease is the number one killer among so-called healthy men in Western world today. More than 40% of men will die from it.

    What is particularly disturbing is that strokes and heart attacks are becoming much more common in younger men.

    It seems that younger men, even those who look physically like they are in good health, are dying because they can't lower ...

    Federal officials overseeing the field of gene therapy searched in vain yesterday for common ground between drug companies that want to keep details of their experiments secret and advocates who favor a more open airing of the field's recently revealed problems.


    Awakening gene therapy with Sleeping Beauty transposons.
    Publication Date: 2005 Aug 3 PMID: 16084771Authors: Essner, J. J. - McIvor, R. S. - Hackett, P. B.Journal: Curr Opin PharmacolSleeping Beauty transposons have the potential for use as chromosome-integrating vectors for non-viral gene therapy. Recent preclinical data from mouse models for human genetic disorders have shown efficacy for the Sleeping Beauty transposon system in the treatment of hemophilia, tyrosinemia type I, junctional epidermolysis bullosa and type 1 diabetes. Methods have also been developed to deliver Sleeping Beauty transposons to the lung, liver and tumors for treatments for cystic fibrosis, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, and cancer. Recent studies characterizing site selection for integration and insertional mutagenesis indicate that the Sleeping Beauty transposon system may be a safer alternative than viral approaches for gene therapy.

  • The Kidnapping of Content
    http://www.plagiarism.org and http://www.Turnitin.com

    Latin kidnapped the word "plagion" from ancient Greek and it ended up in English as "plagiarism". It literally means "to kidnap" - most commonly, to misappropriate content and wrongly attribute it to oneself. It is a close kin of piracy. But while the software or content pirate does not bother to hide or alter the identity of the content's creator or the software's author - the plagiarist does. Plagiarism is, therefore, more pernicious than piracy.

    Enter Turnit.com. An off-shoot of www.iparadigms.com, it was established by a g ...

  • The Great Awakening--Menopause
    The Great Awakening--Menopause
    By: Dr. Loretta Lanphier, ND, CN, HHP

    Menopause is a natural transition all women experience, as natural as adolescence. For your grandmother and great-grandmother, life expectancy was shorter. Reaching menopause often meant that their life was nearing an end. But this is no longer true. Today women are living longer—on average, until age 78. How you experience menopause is determined by many factors: attitude, diet, overall health, genetics, and your cultural group. Medical science views menopause as the state of your body after you had completed one f ...

  • Enough is Enough
    The largest issue in our country today is not being addressed by either Republicans or by Democrats. I love my children and I want to do my part to ensure they grow up in the best country in the world. Voters need to become informed about the irresponsible government spending explosion and vote these politicians out of office.

    Our current politicians are not acting responsibly. When George W. Bush took office four years ago the federal government was over 5.6 trillion dollars in debt. Today the federal government is over 7.4 trillion dollars in debt. The debt has grown 1.8 trillion doll ...
